the "real clear politics" polling average in iowa right now shows president obama ahead by two and in nevada president obama ahead by 2.7. then later in the night at 11:00 p.m. and then 1:00 a.m., we'll have california, hawaii, idaho, oregon, washington, and then the last poll closing in alaska. unless this is a very strange night, those races will be interesting for governors races and senate and house races and state issues, but not necessarily for the presidency. unless things go very, very differently than expected to go. this is how your election viewing is going to unfold hour by hour on tuesday night. if you just exclude the states for the presidential race where everybody pretty much knows exactly how it's going to go and just the states where there is some question as to what's going to happen, here is a clip and save thing for you about these states. the battlegrounds. all right? states that you know are going to be important and everybody thinks they're going to be close. these are the states everybody is going to be watching on tuesday night. each of these states, as you k

obama. i mean, one of the other things that you know that they drk reverend al, they took out sunday voting, the sunday before the news day of election day. >> right. >> there's a tradition in the african-american community to go out after church and vote but we did that last sunday. >> now, the other thing that has compounded it is that these ballots in miami-dade are ten page ballots. you're dealing with extensive ballots that take time for people to go through. so people around the country need to know it's not just walking in and choosing a name. these are ten-page ballots with people lined up outside waiting for their opportunities. >> you couldn't be more right. we put 11 amendments on this ballot. it makes it ridiculously long. people get in and start to vote and stay there for a long time because they are trying to read and decipher everything on that ballot and you have to wonder if the intent was to do just that, slow people down. but that's where we are right now. i have faith. i

amid this incredible tight race he stays off the campaign trail as long as it takes and that's the right thing to do. >> it wouldn't be surprising, too, and remember the obama campaign has so many young people on the ground volunteering and they are not adverse to the idea of asking people to volunteer their time for the purpose of helping others in those communities. a president's job in these situations is the three c's. it's compassion, competency, and showing that you care about the people without show voting. if he can do those things, i think that the president will look pretty good coming out of this. >> you know, so much of this campaign -- and i say this from both directions -- has been petty and mickey mouse, arguing about big bird and stuff like that and the bayonets even. it doesn't matter the future of the country, it's picking up point. don't you think, james? it's catching the other side, i got you, i got you, i got you. and we've lacked the commanding sense. this is damn important, how a country responds to a natural crisis. this is important. >> it's also a reminder that

barack obama is doing it right here. bringing health care costs down and health care and coverage up. [cheers and applause] >> finally, he has a budget based on arithematic. $2 in spending cuts for every $1 in revenue increases. i never had a nickel. and asked us in high-income groups to pay more to balance the budget and get rid of the debt and manage our future. now, how does that compare with governor romney's plan? you remember they told us at their convention that the debt was the biggest problem in the world, remember that? they forget to tell us that we never have permanent debt in peace time until they convinced everybody that government would mess up a two-car parade and no such thing as a bad tax cut. and they tripled and quadrupled the debt before i took office in 12 years and i gave you four years of declining deficits and four years of surpluses.
